We love Piwaka! We've had kids at Piwaka for the last 8 years and love the centre, their approach and most of all the wonderful teachers! It was sad to say goodbye to our Piwaka whanau, but school beckons. And with Piwaka both of our kids were well prepared for the jump to primary school. Ka Pai!

My daughter suffered from seperation anxiety but the team at Piwaka really helped me transition my little one into preschool. The teachers were loving and supportive, and I am happy to say that my lil one is now more confident and independant. I loved their idea and concept of the school readiness programme,this really helped my lil one be ready for school. We will miss the team at Piwaka and we will surely drop by for a visit. Highly recommended. PS: Wish you had a Primary School.

My son started at Pwaka at 9 months old and I am so glad I chose this daycare. He loved going everyday and the teachers in the Huia room were so attached to him and form such lovely relationships with the children. We have since moved overseas and will struggle to find a daycare as good as Piwaka.

I strongly recommend Piwaka to those looking for an all encompassing childcare for their children. My son has been beautifully looked after by caring, supportive and knowledgeable carers and teachers throughout his four years there. It is clear that it is excellently managed and this feeds throughout the centre, staff turnover is minimal and the relationships we have built have been valued and long lasting. Highlights for me were; being very happy with each and every teacher we encountered, the healthy food served each day, the school readiness program which tooled up my son well in preparation, trips to Kiwi Valley/the Observatory/parks etc, Playball and the interesting and challenging activities that my son enjoyed and thrived within each day. A huge thank you to Grant, Rachel and the Piwaka Team, it has been an absolute pleasure :-D
